Q: QuestionDoes this dishwasher heat it’s own water? Or do you need to run the water till it’s hot before I start the dishwasher?
Asked by Kerry.
- A:Answer Yes it heats its own water with a coil. So far has done well cleaning without prewashing dishes. Good detergent like Finish tabs is a big factor too according to Consumer Reports. If it didn't then I would get the water hot 1st at the tap but haven't had to do that.

Q: QuestionHow many gallons of water does it use in the 1 hour wash cycle
Asked by Pack.
- A:Answer Hello Pack! Unfortunately, since the units are sensored and are determined on factors such as level of clothing and soil there is no way we can state the direct amount of gallons each cycle would use.
